Unmatched Sun's Origin Box Opening

[@monte2413]

Hey John, love the video, been lookin forward to this! A correction for 11:00 Fearsome Strength doesn’t trigger Tomoe’s ability, I asked this exact example on discord and Justin replied confirming for it not triggering. Because the swapping of spaces happens simultaneously.

[@zeroskatr12]

Thanks for the clarification! Makes sense because "her zone" is sort of ambiguous at that point when they are swapping.

Nice to see another one of these! Always super fun to your first impressions and these characters (especially oda) are really cool

[@Jesup1204]

I noticed something unique about the map that’ll make it awsome for ranged fighters. The red and yellow zones have spaces on the opposite sides of the map.

[@zeroskatr12]

I did see that, crazy! It's a really interesting map layout even though there are no gimmicks.

If you wanna check other games in this Samurai theme, find Senjutsu: Battle for Japan. Its a new Unmatched like skirmish card game, with strong focus on positionig. It also have optional deckbuilding rules. You should love it :)

Sounds fun! I'll have to check it out.

[@martinmackey7191]

Hi Zero, Great review as always. I have a question about fearsome strength. This is an issue of "games that don't have magic the gathering's rules precision." Let's say we're adjacent. I'm in zone A, you're in B. I Play fearsome strength and we swap. You say my ability will damage you for leaving my zone, but we were never in the same zone. Are you saying that at the end of resolution, I'm in zone B, which is the zone you just left and that's why you're damaged? When is zone status checked and redetermined? Continuously? If so, you never left my zone because at the moment we recalculate that I'm in B, you're now in A. You were never in "my zone" before you left. So I guess we need clarity on the timing of these effects. Follow up question: what about if we're in dual or tri space zones? If you leave your space, and that causes you to leave 3 zones I'm in, will the trigger happen 3 times? Thanks in advance

[@zeroskatr12]

As noted in another comment the ruling is no damage for fearsome strength because the swap happens simultaneously. So you are correct. But if Tomoe is in multiple zones, the opponent would have to leave ALL of those zones in order for the damage ability to trigger.

[@martinmackey7191]

@@zeroskatr12 got it thanks. That's intuitive. Sorry, didn't scroll through all comments. And in your example, if they leave all of tomoe's zones, the ability still only triggers once right?

[@zeroskatr12]

@martinmackey7191 yep. But once EACH TIME they fully leave them. So if they moved back and forth it could be multiple.

[@EVGENIISenchenko-bx4fi]

Hi, John. What do you think about Tomoe position in tier list?) very interesting))

[@zeroskatr12]

I really don't know where she falls yet. I have only played a single game with her and I haven't seen much of her in tourney yet either.

[@kilevine2359]

What do you think about the stopping doing two side boards in order to create new mechanics ones as restoration said? This one is too normal

[@zeroskatr12]

I personally like only getting one map per set. Otherwise I feel it gets to be too much, especially for competitive play. Too many options that really aren't needed. This map is very normal, but it still has a cool layout so I think I like it.

[@EliteBadFrog]

Restoration games have said that the upcoming Witcher licensed sets will have 2 maps per box/set.

[@stephenball2108]

Forgive me if I’m mistaken, I love the game but I’m not expert enough on small rules intricacies. If you play Skirmish on defense with Tomoe, and the opponents hero is at the edge of her zone, are you able to use the two movement to move them out of her zone and then back in? If you can, would that trigger her ability since they did move out and then still keep them in her zone for a potential double attack?

[@schwantzfrancalanza1036]

Yes you are Theres a section in the rule book that confirms that

[@stephenball2108]

@@schwantzfrancalanza1036 What about how she works with multicolored spaces? Say she’s in a yellow/blue/red space, does she trigger when someone moves out of yellow into blue, or does she only trigger when they completely leave all of her zones?

[@schwantzfrancalanza1036]

That a good question But i believe no since she's considered to be in all those zones thus he never left her zone

[@schwantzfrancalanza1036]

Just keep in mind that her ability doesn't care on were the opponent hero ends his move, as soon as the hero leaves her zone he instantly takes 1 damage, and he can take multiple damage in one card effect The card " A warrios way " is able to deal 2 damage if the positioning is right

[@stephenball2108]

@@schwantzfrancalanza1036 yeah, I would assume not, because that would feel incredibly punishing

[@ПешкоМихаил]

Probably for the first time Im ok with 7 value cards in deck because of how punishing it may be to use it and because other card values are so low in Tomoe deck. And Oda feels like a "healthier" version of Electra - reliant on sidekicks, but not with such dumb crazy OP mechanics.(or maybe he will turn out to be even more crazy, who knows) Btw I have kida personal question - as one of top competitive players, so you still enjoy playnig "low tier" fighters or if he is not meta relevant you are not interested in playing it?

[@zeroskatr12]

Invisible Man is still one of my favorites. I enjoy playing low tiers in matchups where I feel I have a chance. If it's hopeless then it's definitely not fun anymore. With that said anything in mid tier is usually competitive enough to have a chance into most characters, so that is the sweet spot to me.

[@zeroskatr12]

Also I won't invest too much time into a low tier because I won't end up playing them in tournament, which is my main source of playtime now days. But I still have a blast playing all new fighters within their set on release!

[@stephenball2108]

@@zeroskatr12For me I feel like one great thing about Tales to Amaze is that it gives a great outlet to be able to break out the weaker heroes more often. If I’m trying to beat a friend I might not break out Angel or Spike, but if we’re going to play a fun cooperative game together it gives those characters an outlet.

Ah, so a character that is awesome in Adventure Mode and a character that's basically incompatible. Hope that's just a quirk of release order being shuffled by delays, and not something they'll intentionally do going forward.

[@zeroskatr12]

I didn't think about that but good point. I think that's just a coincidence. I don't believe they actually design for Adventures in mind specifically.

[@EGE4owo]

they said in the discord we should consider the villains also for the leave the zone skill

[@EliteBadFrog]

@@zeroskatr12i think RG said something similar, they don’t want to limit their design space just because of the new UMA mode. If they have an awesome design idea they will go through with it even if it would suck in UMA/not work

[@stephenball2108]

She won’t be as good in Adventures but you can probably often still position to take advantage of her ability. It says in the rules that if there’s multiple routes tied for the shortest, the player chooses the route, so you can probably set up routes that involve them dipping in and out of your zone before getting adjacent. I’m not positive, I’d have to look at the maps. For sure she won’t be one of the best in Adventures but I don’t think she’s unplayable.

You know that Fearsome Strength cannot trigger her ability? If the opponent is in her zone..and you swap places...both are still in the same zone haha

Well I meant if they were adjacent and in two different zones. But I guess the ruling is that it still would not trigger in that case, because the swap is simultaneous.

@@parkourse2457 The flanking ability works very poorly in anmached, especially in defense. The loss of even 1 guard is a much more tangible loss than the death of hunter, Watson or 1 of the raptors.
